    Personally not a fan of the idea. The carrot of the current approach of a 2x3 year term, where they only get the extra 3 years if they have done enough for a mellowpuff is a good check.

    /edit - having said that a 2020 poll said that 61% were in favour so there you go.

      I am generally a fan because it does allow for less time and money spent on elections but I do see the value in a shorter term. I don’t quite get the whole thing about having 3 year terms if the select committee isn’t set up a certain way though. Very confusing.
